According to their website it isn't. Looks like they are supplied with a set of parameters for use with a personal DSP solution.
Ah, so they are driven actively by external poweramps and external line level xover. This makes sense.According to their website it isn't. Looks like they are supplied with a set of parameters for use with a personal DSP solution.
As far as I understand they are for use with outboard crossover and amps. A bit like car audio with seperate dsp and units.This must be hidden inside, otherwise the tweeter wouldn't survive for much longer than a few minutes at high SPLs.
I thought the same. The customer provides the DSP crossover and filters!This must be hidden inside, otherwise the tweeter wouldn't survive for much longer than a few minutes at high SPLs.
Each variant will be delivered with an optimized reference crossover design made by Peter Larsen from Loudsoft based on measurements done in a class 1 semi-anechoic chamber from IFAA .
You can enter the crossover parameters, like slope, gain, delay and so on, into your DSP for a quick start.
And together with the measurement dataset you can simulate (with for example VituixCAD) and customize the crossover to your specific goals.
The drivers are very expensive about 1500$ Purifi and Blisma and much more expensive than most other bookshelf speakers with a 5000$ pricetag per pair. But in the end I would agree that you can't win any price performance contest with these speakers...As always, my snarky first thought is $5000 is quite a large sum for two PuriFi 4" woofers and a pair of nice tweeters, in minimal cabinets, with some audio consultation services by Peter Larsen. But I need to reduce my snarkiness!
Yes, agreed, hence my comment "I need to reduce my snarkiness"!!!The drivers are very expensive about 1500$ Purifi and Blisma and much more expensive than most other bookshelf speakers with a 5000$ pricetag per pair. But in the end I would agree that you can't win any price performance contest with these speakers...
P.S. you can reduce the price to 3500€ by using the black finish and silk dome tweeter option.
With separate inputs, perhaps they are designed for an active crossover and biamping.This must be hidden inside, otherwise the tweeter wouldn't survive for much longer than a few minutes at high SPLs.
If I may borrow the phrase from our friends "across the pond" - these guys are just taking the piss.
100% fugly.
OMG, Tell me that's only a nightmareAries Cerat - Aurora speaker
Guess they're going for that mind-bending look (and sound?).OMG, Tell me that's only a nightmare
I really don't know who buys these monstrosities.. or do they exist as single specimen to "wow" the crowds at audioshows in whatever manner?OMG, Tell me that's only a nightmare
Someone repurposed one of those doomsday machine relics roaming around the galaxy.
These aren't speakers, they're disguised aliens.
There's just no explaining the human mind and peoples tastes.I really don't know who buys these monstrosities.. or do they exist as single specimen to "wow" the crowds at audioshows in whatever manner?
